The Cult facation needs to have their tornado ability buffed. It does very little damge to buildings if any at all, where as the other two factions both have great attack abilities. It dosent need to be super buffed but just enough to be able to also do some damage to other players buildings. as it is now it is more of an annoying skill against other players than anything. It can slow down and even kill a few troopers or some other low armored/HP units. But as far as being as destructive as some of the other factions speacial skills, it sux. The humans can call in air strikes and air assualts, the alien can use that swarm and and mass confusion and teleport. The cult has vision, tornado, and heal. This puts theme as a solid defensive type with no real option to take down other players towers. Yes I know that you can use these skills combined with an attack squad. I have played cult Vs. Humans, cult Vs. cult, cult Vs. Aliens and it all plays out the same. Mabey some one else can respond with a different result, but mine where all the same. I even had 4 to 2 Resource towers to the other player and still there was no way I could take out the other players towers.

Ok..first the TRIBES have a tornado - the CULT are those green pests with the load of CC abilities that DON'T have a tornado. Second the tornado is not supposed to be a damage dealer - it is supposed to slow the enemy down and also it deals some dmg. Try to think in perspective - use it to slow the enemy and then cast BBQ under their feet for instance. There should not be "click-your-army-is-dead-and-there's-nothing-you-can-do-about-it-because-you-are-also slowed-and-other-shit-is-comming-your-way-rofl" skills in the game. It provides you with more tactical options - it is crowd control.

Tornado, as far as I know it, is not supposed to be used on buildings anyways...

So basically your entire suggestion to buff it seems kind of invalid.

Tornado is great to use on cult buildings... it destroys eggs, and no eggs = no money.

That's what I hate about that tornado, you can't move with your eggs :) Anyway it costs money for the tribes as well...
